Pag-alis sa COVID public health emergency, oks kay P-BBM — DOH

ni Mylene Alfonso | July 5, 2023




Pormal na utos na lamang ni Pangulong Ferdinand Marcos, Jr. ang kailangan upang tuluyang alisin ang COVID-19 public health emergency.


Ayon kay Health Secretary Teodoro Herbosa, sinabi sa kanya ng Pangulo na tila inalis na ang public health emergency dahil sa pagpapagaan ng mga COVID restrictions.


"Ang sabi niya (Marcos) kasi, de facto, parang naka-lift na rin tayo di ba? Optional na ang masking 'di ba? Hindi na in-extend 'yung ano...," wika ni Herbosa sa isang panayam.


"Wala pang formal, we're still waiting for the [order], eh, de facto naman tayo, ang dami na, nagpunta ko sa mall ang dami nang 'di nagma-mask eh," sabi pa ni Herbosa.


Ayon pa sa Kalihim, kabilang sa mga marching order ng Pangulo sa kanya ay ang makarekober mula sa COVID at makabangon ang ekonomiya.


"Basically ni-reiterate ko ‘to kanina during our sectoral meeting that we now consider COVID among health care workers as similar to other illnesses like cough, colds, influenza," saad ni Herbosa.


"But we still have to protect ourselves. I think the public health warning is you still have to protect yourself if you are vulnerable – and you still need to get the vaccine if you want to be specially protected," diin pa niya.


Matatandaang sinabi ni Herbosa na irerekomenda niya sa Palasyo na alisin ang COVID-19 state of public health emergency sa bansa makaraang ideklara na rin ng World Health Organization na tapos na ang pandemya.
